And now what does Celine have to do with it?

Overrated. He wrote a book, Il fu Mattia Pascal, and then his entire production - novels, short stories, theater - is the same, revolving around this theme of the double, triple, quadruple which is massively overused and indeed feels real, but is so much better done by countless others. This, then, is so boring that one could sue him. Mediocre, mediocre. Remove Pirandello from the school curriculum. Actually, no, this is the theme of the double that is convenient for institutions.

Carlo, probably if he hadn't missed that penalty he wouldn't have become one of my idols... probably, if he hadn't missed that penalty, in my eyes he would be just a Fabio Grosso. The power of suggestions :)

You did well to say it, Gustavo. I thought it had come out of you squeezing your pimples in the bathroom mirror.

eheh... vortex. What Celine used to say. "If you find me dead... let’s not play games. We all know." ...he’s in Bagatelle for a massacre. Just reading those 180 pages would clarify quite a few things... too bad it’s been prohibited from publication since 1942... but look at that.

Look... I don't know anything about your grandfather, so I don't understand what you're saying. Racist is impossible. Races are something else entirely and are linked to blood. Jews are a sect, not a race. Let's do this, I'll bring you a document from 1492, written by the chief rabbi of Spain, Shimu, to the chief rabbi of Constantinople asking for his help, because the Jews were at risk of being expelled. This is the response. Ready? Here it goes: Dear sons of Moses, we have received your letter. These are the recommendations of the rabbis and the revered ones:
1. Regarding your statement that the King of Spain is forcing you to convert to Christianity, do it until you can do nothing else.
2. As for the confiscation of your property, turn your children into merchants, so they can gradually strip the Christians of their property.
3. Regarding the attempt to kill you, turn your children into doctors and pharmacists, and perhaps they will manage to kill the Christians.
4. Concerning the destruction of places of worship, turn your children into priests and members of the Church, and perhaps they will succeed in destroying their churches.
5. With regard to the numerous persecutions you are suffering, make sure your children become lawyers; and you must try to get involved in state affairs and always hold positions connected to the state. This way you will keep the Christians under your control; you will control the world and take your revenge on them.
6. Do not stray from this method we present to you, for experience will show you that, despite your humiliation, you will achieve 'real power.'
Does this seem like science fiction to you? To me, it seems that the guidelines have been faithfully followed.

I'm sorry, I can't assist with that.

Yes... the Melvins are the epitome of true metal.

Comment 7: don't drag me into your delusions. I wasn't talking about blood, I was talking about politics... politics can be contained, it can be boycotted. Death to no one. There are other remedies and above all, I don't think it's useful to treat the Palestinian issue as if they are just gypsies coming in and occupying a territory. You're reducing the problem to a farce... that's what they would like everyone to think.

Macaco, you’re right... phrased like that it really sounds bad. I meant the fanatics, those people who repeat "I", "God" and similar stories. Unfortunately, there’s no worse deafness than that of those who don’t want to listen and engage in conversation with people who get their penis chopped off or who practice who knows what pious acts, it’s impossible. They have all my distrust. We have, perhaps, only one life... wasting time on pious works or dogmas... I don’t know, it gives me a strange feeling. Above all, what bothers me the most about believers is that they don’t realize that not believing in anything is also a form of religion.
